from concept design to the boat of your dreams
CONCEPT DESIGN
We are committed to the pursuit of excellence, a fundamental principle that guides us in creating our designs. Together with our customers we shape the essential qualities of every aluminium boat they want. Help us make your dream of owning a boat a reality, using the expertise we have and the attention to detail that characterizes us and that we want to align with your vision.
Our concept design process for boats and yachts is designed to provide a personalized experience and transform clients' ideas into reality. Every project is approached with professionalism, passion, and attention to detail, ensuring results that meet the highest standards of quality.
It all begins with a detailed discussion where we carefully listen to your desires and expectations. We aim to fully understand the purpose of the boat, your preferred style, and the functionalities you need. Subsequently, we perform a detailed technical analysis to determine the optimal solutions, evaluating materials, dimensions, and necessary features.
Our designers create sketches and 3D visual representations that offer a realistic view of the future design. Together with you, we adjust the details to ensure every aspect reflects your vision. After approving the visual concept, our engineers integrate modern technologies and construction solutions that ensure performance and safety, maximizing efficiency and space utilization.
The final concept is presented in detail through technical plans, 3D renderings, and clear specifications. During construction, we provide ongoing support to ensure all design details are respected and implemented according to the initial plan.
At every step, we emphasize open communication and close collaboration with you, so that the resulting boat or yacht becomes an expression of your dream. We take pride in our ability to combine aesthetics, performance, and functionality to create inspiring vessels.

NAVAL ARCHITECTURE
Through rigorous application of marine engineering principles, from conceptual designs to detailed stability and hydrodynamic analyses, we ensure that every vessel is both high performing and safe. Our team of engineers uses software and technology to deliver optimised solutions that comply with current international standards.
At Compunav, the naval architecture process moves seamlessly from a validated concept to a production-ready package. Through our methodology, every client requirement is transformed into a solid, compliant, and safe vessel design, built on first principles and advanced analysis.
It all begins with the Concept Validation stage, where we systematically evaluate the feasibility of the design, focusing on performance and operational objectives.
Once validated, the project enters the engineering phase, which covers accurate weight estimation, hydrostatic and stability calculations, resistance and powering predictions, and propulsion system selection. At the same time, we integrate class society rules and flag state regulations from the outset, ensuring compliance is embedded naturally into the design.
Our process brings together parallel streams such as hull form optimization, structural analysis, and machinery space planning, with close coordination across all engineering disciplines. The result is a cohesive design, delivered on schedule and to the highest standards.
Throughout the process, our core and non-negotiable priority is seakeeping and overall seaworthiness. We go beyond minimum stability criteria, designing vessels for their actual service profile. We carefully assess hull seakeeping, stability reserves under intact and damaged conditions, freeboard adequacy, weather deck safety, and the reliability of closing appliances and safety systems.
Our goal is to deliver vessels that are not only class-approved, but truly capable, safe, and ready for their operational environment.

Engineering
We turn creative concepts into functional reality. From initial sketches and compliance validation calculations, we focus on technical details to optimise structure, propulsion and systems, material usage and energy efficiency to produce all the documentation required to build the final craft design and a final craft that delivers safety.
Compunav provides expert structural engineering for steel, aluminum, and composite hulls. Our portfolio covers a diverse range of vessels, from lightweight, high-speed craft to robust displacement yachts designed for ocean navigation.
The structural design process defines the material specifications and scantlings for the hull, deck, and superstructure plating and stiffening. This process culminates in the delivery of a fully developed construction plan.
Material selection is guided by the vessel’s operational profile and performance requirements. All structural development follows the principles of sound naval architecture, with scantlings calculated to meet or exceed the rules of the relevant classification society and validated against the chosen production methodology.
Beyond standard rule-based calculations, we routinely apply direct calculation methods such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to optimize structural efficiency and performance.
It is important to emphasize that defining materials and scantlings is only a preliminary step. The essence of our structural design lies in the seamless integration of requirements from all other onboard disciplines. While naval architecture establishes the foundational layout, achieving a fully integrated design that unifies structure, interiors, and systems requires a high level of cross-disciplinary experience and technical expertise.

CONSTRUCTION
Our dedication to excellence is reflected in every aspect of the aluminium boat building industry. Working closely with our customers, we establish the key specifications that underpin every project. We use advanced technologies and proven engineering practices to ensure that every build meets the safety and durability standards required by current regulations.
At Compunav, we believe that a pleasure craft should be a true reflection of your life on the water. Whether it’s for peaceful coastal cruising or pursuing the perfect sportfishing catch, the process begins with listening. We collaborate closely with you to understand your vision and bring it to life with meticulous attention to detail. The result is a boat with exceptional finish and reliability, designed to deliver unmatched performance and comfort. This personalized approach ensures that every Compunav vessel is truly unique.
Our team is made up not just of builders, but of enthusiasts who share your passion for boating. Every curve of the hull, every stitch of the upholstery, and every installation of onboard systems is carried out with dedication and craftsmanship, driven by a genuine love for the sea. This pride in workmanship is evident in flawless joinery, perfectly laid decks, and the seamless integration of all components. We constantly innovate and refine our techniques to elevate the quality, comfort, and performance of every vessel we create.
The combination of your personal vision and our artisan execution results in a pleasure craft that stands apart. It is a boat where thoughtful design meets robust construction, offering both elegance for entertaining and rugged capability for adventure. Every Compunav vessel is more than just a boat – it is a personal sanctuary, engineered for memories and crafted with heart.
